An introduction, but very little computing
While the book does an adequate job of explaining the purpose to bioinformatics, it wasn't very technical. I had it as a text for a graduate course, and many of us whose background was in computing found a need to find outside references. It's not a bad book for some high level coverage, but it never seems to get to the meat of a subject in much depth or detail. It is more for someone interested in existing tools and databases, but not for a developer who wants to get started in this field. If you're in that category you may want to look at some other text books such as "Bioinformatics in the Post Genomic Era" by Augen or "Fundamental Concepts of Bioinformatics" by Krane and Raymer. Another potential source is Lesk's "Introduction to Bioinformatics" (a bit older, but it does talk about specific computational skills).
